Stevens Rhodes shares, "Amy's Amazing Adventures" is the biography of a child born in 1852, the youngest of thirteen children. As her mother was dying shortly after Amy's birth, she offered the baby to a dear barren friend. When she was two years old, Amy's foster mother died. Amy was then given to another family where she was mistreated by the foster mother and brothers but learned valuable spiritual lessons from the foster father. Recognizing that Amy was not taken care of properly, neighbors helped secure yet another foster home. This elderly lady was loving but soon she died too, and once again Amy was placed with another family. By the time she was ten years old, Amy had lived in five homes. Amy's nature and character, strongly built through her hardships, prepared her for many unusually amazing adventures for a young lady of that era.
At age eighteen, finding her family of origin and inheriting a small cash sum made it possible for Amy to begin a new life.
